Ken I have to agree 22mm is the way to go. As for the stitching. White is classic and will allow you to use the sshiznit and be a great combo on the PRS50. Tough call. If you only want to use the strap for the PRS50, go with the red stitching.

22mm, and red stitching. I liked the suggestion about the subtler red rather than a bright red.

Looks like a nice combo, and I agree about the 22mm size, especially with the strap thickness. But, I gotta say...I don't particularly like brown straps with black dials. I'd go with a black strap if I were you. I do really like Skip's suggestion about a dull red stitching color, but it will limit the watches you can use it on (somewhat). Very cool watch, BTW :).

(although I do like some black watches with brown straps)... At any rate I just ordered it and specified: 22mm with dull red in black.

This might be a late post. I got the PRS-50 and its a great watch but due to its physical characteristics it was hard to decide on the strap. Here arer a couple I tried. Bund ![]() Velcro ![]() Defaubre ![]() I eventually decided on the bund because its was different and looked good. KenC wrote: Okay...I'm getting a 22mm consensus here...and I'm leaning toward red, but I'd like a little more input!!! For example...where is PAX the incorrigible? The Dawg, Oscar and Mister Color himself...TonyD, the Zipmeister, Steve, et al?

WC...thanks for your input. I did order the black strap (it is black, I checked with Jason) from J&S Straps. I did wear a bund style band on my Glycine Airman in Vietnam in order to keep the metal off my wrist, but I have never been enamored with the "look" of the bund. The nylon looks nice and I may try that...I also like the look of the "aviator" straps, but think it somewhat "off" on a dive watch! I also like the look (and comfort) of this Hirsch twin pad strap (in black) from lonestarwatches.com. I have had one on another watch for sometime...and love it...it is amazingly inexpensive for the quality at about $24....but I will wait for the J&S Strap first. http://www.lonestarwatches.com/883.htm

22mm Hadley-Roma Breitling Style Sport leather strap in dark brown with white stitching. It will make your diver's watch very distinctive. However,as for myself I had a Hamilton Khaki GMT Automatic in black dial on a 22mm Breitling Style Sport Calfskin in extra long in dark brown. Friends thought my watch was a Jaeger LeCoultre Master Geographic. One of them like it so much, I've wound up selling it to him.
